Richard Duane jr Coleman - CDL Driver Reviews

Richard Coleman is a scammer that tries to sue companies for various reasons whether is labor law issues, workers comp, or flat out extortion. I gave this guy an opportunity after he literally begged me for a job only for Richard to tell me send him $20k or he was going to sell the load to the Mexicans and I’d better hurry up because they were following him. I told him go ahead because that’s what insurance is for. Anyway this was a load of expensive Angus and seafood so Richard makes the first delivery from California to Dallas only for him to turn reefer off and trying to spoil the load. He was days late to the second delivery which he was telling me send more money and maybe he’d get up and drive.So what he does is pull over in Rogers County Oklahoma where he was throwing boxes of good products off the truck so I called the police and they came out and made him put the product back on the truck. I ask the police to secure my truck but they couldn’t do anything and told me to report the truck stolen which I did. Well soon as the police left Richard poured DEF in my fuel tanks and ruined my truck!! He went to jail and is currently waiting to answer for his misdeeds!!! Stay away from this guy because he’s definitely mentally unstable and can be dangerous.

Not eligible for rehire.

Very unprofessional driver, who blackmails companies and threatens to call DOT and police and report something on a company that can be suspicious to them. This psycho called OH DOT to get him inspected so we could get violations, and as a result, we got no violation level 3 :D He was given a load and he started to head to PU and suddenly dropped it and refused to go. Instead wanted to go back to the yard and report the company to DOT for no reason (5 days working only with the company). We caught him AND brought the truck back to the yard and removed the truck from him. He then started the scene by giving him money for driving mileage or else he would file a suit. WHat a joke driver! DO NOT HIRE!!!!!!!

Worst driver I ever hired in my life. Completely insane. Called employees names, etc. Ended with a Workers Comp claim for "hurting his shoulder", OSHA case, CA retalation case, CA wage claim. I have the biggest headache from this guy and wish I never hired him. I think I have PTSD.

Do not hire him, mentally unstable, he super nice until you hire him, he is psycho, once he left the yard he started acting weird, asking to get paid after every load, he gets the first load to California, he did this load in 3 weeks and abandoned truck in Cali, he stated if you do not send him money thought Zelle, he will sue you, after 3 weeks finally we pick our truck back, biggest regretted hiring this driver, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID.!!!

this guy is a nut job ,stay away ..omg ,he somewhat found us and called -sounded reasonable on the phone and came to the office since he was staying in a motel near by .gave us a sad story how he was fired for doing good job but the owner of the company was disrespectful to him ,so we dug a little bit more in his employment history and OMG -same story every time /works for 1-2 weeks and gets terminated .Anyway after we told him nicely about not being approved /he went insane -started threatening us with murder.Had to alert Burr Ridge police about him .

Beware!! Stay away this driver is nothing but issues calls ower foul names then tries to apologize when terminated was bribing for money to let us know where he was hidding truck.. Abandoned truck!!! This is a repeat offender he even proudly stated that on a FB blast post. Also claims he sued 5 other companies and brags about this. STAY AWAY
